Can someone please enlighten us....

what is the difference between a Dobhoff and a Keofeed?

(and it IS Keofeed, right? Or is it KAOfeed??)

Thanks!

Nothing as far as I know. Both of these names, in my experience, have referred to small bore feeding tubes with weighted tips used for nasogastric or nasoduodenal feeding.

Remember, the names are brand names, like Kelloggs vs. Post cereal. Corn flakes is corn flakes.
